Default Servo crapped out

So we got hammered with snow here in western wasthington this last week so i thought cool first snow for the honcho and turned it on and all i hear is a whining noise and went to turn the wheels and the darn thing locked up on me so i ordered myself a traxxas waterproof high torque servo.

Then you got another one and then you learned to set your end points so you don't wear them out as quick.

The Traxxas servo will probably not last long. I have no problem with Traxxas, but I don't know of a servo they make that will stand up to Wraith abuse without a servo saver.
